Same, same, but different
With major institutions facing down government and regulator scrutiny, and start-ups and fintechs snapping at their heels, the decision-making process for investors is undergoing a shift.
Winners are grinners, and there was no shortage of happy faces on the SME community’s night of nights. Check out the full list of winners from this year’s awards.
With 214 finalists representing 150 businesses over 24 categories, the Optus My Business Awards 2016 was a sell-out event. Hosted on Friday, 18 November at Sydney’s Four Points by Sheraton hotel, the evening was filled with plenty of fun, frivolity and excitement – as well as a few tears.
There could only be one winner per category, and only one of these winners could take home the My Business – Business of the Year award.
Without further ado, My Business is pleased to announce this year’s winners. Congratulations to everyone who entered and particularly to all the winners and finalists, who demonstrated outstanding achievement in their respective fields.
